MEMBRE DE L'INSTITUT DES ARTS FIGURATIFS
Christian Maltais est un peintre figuratif comptant une vingtaine d’années d’expérience. Ses tableaux de jeunesse datent de la fin des années 70. Âgé de 39ans, Christian Maltais dessine depuis toujours et peint à l’huile depuis l’âge de 16 ans. Il a exercé le métier de graphiste pendant plus de 10 ans, ce qui lui a fourni une pratique intensive en dessin et en illustration avec tous les médias traditionnels y compris l’ordinateur. En plus d’une recherche personnelle prolongée avec plusieurs médiums, il a participé à de nombreux ateliers de formation et de perfectionnement. Il a également côtoyé divers peintres professionnels en atelier ou au cours de symposiums.
Pour la réalisation de ses tableaux, le peintre combine la technique picturale des anciens avec une technique plus moderne afin de donner à ses paysages un aspect de spontanéité et de fraicheur qui transparaît dans une écriture picturale bien marquée, de même qu'un fini de qualité qui se caractérise par un aspect vieillot.
